I Am Writing a Novel
I'm trying to write a synopsis for my novel. Trying to sum up 90,000 words in just 500 is not any fun at all. The worst part is that I feel like it's making my story sound ridiculous.

I don't envy you
I have written essays that won me metals ,but a book
I have tried ,,the harder I try to condense details
the less it makes sense too
without explaining certain things ,they will never get it ,
not explaining how we got here ,they want to know how we got from here to there
I can't do it
I write long posts ,and throw grammar and punctuation to the wind ,
No one would read my books
you would need a forklift to put it on a table

Maybe hire an editor? Someone else who specializes in this might be better.
Who will be reading the synopsis? What is its purpose?

@greenmountaingal I'm looking for an agent to help me get my book published. Many agents require a query letter and a synopsis. I'm not going to pay someone to read my book and then write a synopsis. I can do it. It's just not as much fun as it was to write the book.
